I mean, if it's shameful to not empathize with someone over the slight of their face being partially covered in a movie poster, then I'll accept that. Your disdain of people means nothing to me.

It's pretty straightforward - if they vote for Trump and Trump gives Israel the go ahead to wipe out all Palestinians then the ones here that voted for that got what they asked for. Pretty simple.
If they don't vote for anyone then I understand and sympathize. If they vote for ultra-genocide to spite Democrats then they get what they asked for.
Man, fuck off with this partisan bullshit
Whew the tankies and astroturfers are out in force in these comments. I think we got the gamut going here:
- "I don't vote for genocide"
- "A vote for 3rd party isn't a vote for Trump"
- "If we don't vote 3rd party nothing will change"
- "Jill Stein isn't a Russian asset"
- "Who cares if Trump wins; they're both bad / nothing worse will happen l both sides"
- "I literally don't understand how Trump can win if I vote 3rd party because I don't understand the difference between voting for and against a candidate"
- "Liberals / Democrats / Harris voters are the real fascists"
Solid work astroturfers! Glad to see you're still trotting out these arguments despite plenty of Lemmy users discrediting each and every one. Really shows grit and dedication.
Also, calling it now that at least one of them replies with something about how they're true / haven't been discredited.
From my experience in my very red state, there's a high degree of cognitive dissonance when it comes to those things. A family friend who's very religious is secretly undergoing IVF even though the church banned it's use because they want a child more than the threat of excommunication. Supposedly they'll be forgiven for going against the church since they're "fundamentally good" people.
Don't come to Lemmy for math proofs, particularly in a political conversation. What an obtuse statement.
Great deduction skills there.
Sure, you can't literally steal a vote, but either you're unfamiliar with American colloquialisms or being deliberately obtuse. It's a term that describes exactly what you're doing here - actively trying to convince people to vote against something using deception.
Yes, you're being deceptive by trying to drive democratic voters to split their vote so the right wins. I have yet to see you make a single good faith argument here.
Yeah alright fam. Whatever floats your boat.
